Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yes is that working I want to post by voice this is exciting

No. Oh y'all. This is a brave new world. I can host and drive. Post not post ha ha Ha ha ha. OK, so it is not perfect.

Just be careful -- this guy texted his wife with voice recognition while he was playing trombone!

Because books.

A guy I was seeing for a while could text while driving through voice, and I guess it also read incoming texts to him?

Today is pouring rain, I feel like crap, I can't stop coughing, and the guy who HIT ME last week has now reported the accident against my insurance for some tiny crack in his bumper (while my bumper was dragged off and ended up in many pieces), and the new boss is great but also super scattered, and getting her to answer or even acknowledge an email is like pulling impacted wisdom teeth. With a pair of tweezers. I am So Over today.

Our wings are not tired.

The tree is OK so far. But kitty has been sleeping.

Same here. Both cats seem to like lying under the tree looking up at the lights, but haven't really bothered it at all.

Wow Matt, that was one productive Sunday! I was a slug because I knew I was looking at a horrendously busy week and just wanted to spend a day in advance reading and watching comfort tv.

Except I seem to have forgotten how to bake completely

You and me both. I don't seem to be able to have much success baking as well in FL as I did in NY. I've pretty much given up.

I'm REALLY weirded out by the fact that I'm the calm one in this situation.

It's really helpful to take turns freaking out. Seriously. It's Tim's turn this time.

He did come over and packed up at least one bag and cleaned his room including vacuuming.

That's good! Progress.

Happy birthday, Consuela! Is it today, or was it over the weekend.

How's the new roommate, meara?

No. Oh y'all. This is a brave new world. I can host and drive.

I don't even like talking on my phone and driving!!

A guy I was seeing for a while could text while driving through voice, and I guess it also read incoming texts to him?

Yes, it does that, but I still find it distracting.

Week from hell here. I shouldn't even try to do anything but work.

May all of our weeks calm the fuck down.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Go msbelle! Harness that technology to post more! I look forward to inexplicable trombone posts.

askye, I had to get a letter from the auto loan company saying they had no interest in the car anymore (or something like that) which was actually super easy once I knew that's what I had to do. It was TMCC and they had a form I could fill out on their website. I hope your issue is as simple to resolve.

Ugh, Amy. THAT GUY. Killing him with my brain right now.

I can't really complain about my workload, it's pretty much par for the course, but I'm tired and don't care about any of this. So.

New roommate is so far so good!

I am feeling very lazy and work resistant mostly because while there is some mess from the guy I took over from, there is simultaneously not enough to do, so I keep procrastinating? Not good, self! And then there's a few things I feel like I've asked about twenty times and gotten different answers each time so keep asking and maybe no one knows and maybe I made it worse and maybe I didn't but trying to keep track is crazy-making.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm trying to answer an impossible question, and I just went to let someone yell at me about it in person, so I feel like I've done enough for today.

Wow Matt, that was one productive Sunday!

To be fair that was two days' worth of chores because I was totally unproductive Saturday. I barely managed to get myself washed and fed what with all the napping.

I also got LDBed at a restaurant Friday evening, but at least it was a pretty choral version rather than the one that's always on the radio.

Thrive to spite them

-t the bank is going to send me a letter like that. I am still looking for my birth certificate which I need for the Real ID license.

I realized in not running around today I have set myself up for a lot of running around next week. I am hoping to have some closing shifts so I can go and try to get some things done before work. I HAVE to get my prescription next Monday (with the Vyvanse I have to go to the doctor and get it because they aren't set up to fax that kind of prescription and that is back in Brevard).

But I did schedule the exterminator to come and spray again.

And even if I have to run around a bunch next week I had 2 very restful days that I needed.

and the lady at the bank is going to contact the DMV for a replacement title so that is another thing I don't have to do.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Well, the party went pretty well. Got more people attending then the last couple parties combined.
